it's maybe not that fast from the factory, but it has a ton of potential after-market. rsx-s is pretty fast, my friend has one, but i like the EP3 chassis better and also after the A2 head swap and CTR intake manifold, i will be pretty quick too.

The main reason I said that I would have waited is because the '06 Si is probably gonna be the best Civic made to date. More than that it will probably be better than the old Preludes.

I'm sorry... don't know why I said that about them not being fast... please don't hurt me?! They're quick. Also... you should do a type-s head swap. Or look around and maybe find a type-r if you're lucky.

Rep Power: 310 ive read up on that Type-S headswap swap on A3's, and they seem to say the gains don't show through unless you get the A2 6 speed tranny.
The Type-S head flows superior to the A3 head, but you need the gearing to take advantage of its flow in the upper RPM band.
